"I loved the feeling of this mineral foundation however, I feel the shade is quite dark for shade 2, I was hoping to replace another mineral foundation with this one but the colour is wrong. Its a shame samples cannot be provided. I will be back for other products from Tropic though."

Product Description
WHAT IS IT?
Light as a feather, our Mineral Foundation skims over your complexion like silk. It's designed to provide a full-coverage appearance without the heaviness of traditional liquid formulas, making it the perfect choice for a natural yet polished look.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
This foundation does more than just even out your skin tone; it actively nourishes your skin as you wear it. With light-diffusing particles to enhance your natural radiance, and botanical extracts like olive leaf and vitamin E to soothe and restore, it leaves your complexion looking and feeling supple.
The addition of SPF protection helps shield your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays throughout the day. Entirely talc-free and non-comedogenic, this mineral makeup is gentle enough for sensitive skin types.
Plus, our refillable system helps reduce packaging waste from your beauty routine.

How To Use
Gently press your Full Coverage Kabuki Brush into the mesh, then swirl it around and tap to remove any excess powder.
Apply in circular motions all over your face, starting from the centre and blending outwards to achieve an even, flawless finish.
For areas that require extra coverage or are trickier to reach, such as around the nose or under the eyes, use the large end of your Flat Detailing Brush or a dampened Velvet Cushion.
To refill: Simply remove the buffing plate using the indent, pour in the contents of your refill pouch, and snap the plate back into place to continue your routine.
Ingredients

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend
At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.
